Step 1
Start from full front and back for the asymmetric style.
Extend the skirt length, then draw the neckline for shoulder straps.
Asymmetric dress with flounce
Let's see the pattern for this asymmetric dress. It's a fake wrap dress: there is no overlap but a slanted seam in the bodice and a side zipper.
Start from a basic block with zero to minimum wearing ease and darts, and have fun transforming it into this style!
You can learn our method for drafting perfectly made to measure basic blocks (contoured ones, and the ones with wearing ease) and for fitting them in our basic blocks course/module 1. You will learn in depth also how to manipulate darts, add volumes and a lot of pattern transformations that will take your pattern making skills to a higher level.
You can sew the dress in any light to medium weight fabric: cotton, viscose, silk..you'll get slightly different effects according to their drape but all will work!
Step 2
Draw the ruffle lines:
- on back, draw a parallel to the hem approx 15cm above it, then draw a side extension for side ruffle up to the waist
- on front skirt, start from opposite side and draw the high-low hem first, then the ruffle from 15cm width to 3cm width
- on front bodice, extend the neckline up to side seam at waist, then draw a parallel below it and trace the ruffle part on a separate sheet.
